I would like to introduce you to my son, Wind-Wolf. He is
probably what you would consider a typical Indian kid. He
was born and raised on the reservation. He has black hair,
dark brown eyes, olive complexion. And like so many
Indian children his age, he is shy and quiet in the
classroom. He is five years old, in kindergarten, and I can't
understand why you have already labeled him a "slow
learner."
-- Medicine Grizzlybear Lake, "An Indian Father's Plea"
Why does Lake reintroduce the teacher to Wind-Wolf in the beginning of "An
Indian Father's Plea"?
O A. To show that his son has been properly scolded for his
misbehavior in school and will no longer be a problem during
class
B. To show that he is frustrated by the teacher's bias against both his
son and American Indians in general
O C. To show that he feels the teacher has not taken the time to
recognize Wind-Wolf as an individual with a specific background
O D. To show that his son is a new student in the teacher's class and he
wants to properly introduce him so they start out on the right foot
